Part 1 Littoral drift on Staten Island
Examine the Google Earth image of the shoreline.
GEO 101
Instructor: Maria Ivanova
Highlight all of the groins in red. Shade all of the areas where sand is accumulating because
of the groins in blue. Highlight the areas where sand is being eroded in yellow. Draw an
arrow to illustrate the direction of the longshore current and littoral drift.
How did you determine the direction of this current?
I determined the direction of this current by looking at the sand buildup around the goins. I
saw that on the right side of the groins, there was more buildup of sand that was being
washed up. Because of that, it was easy to determine where the longshore current is
moving this sand.
Part 2 Shoreline shape and sea level rise
You will draw 3 topographic profiles of different parts of the Staten Island shoreline to
interpret how each would respond to storm surge and sea level rise.
Open Google Earth Pro on your computer. Locate the points below and draw topographic
profiles of different parts of the Staten Island shoreline to interpret
how each would
respond to storm surge and sea level rise. Attach all three profiles to the lab.
Make sure your profile starts at point 1 - it is important to get the correct distances in
feet for your answers.
a) Annandale
GEO 101
Instructor: Maria Ivanova
Annandale
UTM coordinates
Point 1
570510 mE, 4486290 mN
Point 2
569665 mE, 4487835 mN
On your profile trace the point where a 15-foot storm surge would reach. How far inland
would the flooding extend (in feet)? Record your answer in a table below.
15-foot storm surge
Location
Distance in feet
Annandale
24 ft
Sea level rise is predicted to be up to 6.6 feet by 2100 (NOAA). If the West Antarctic ice
sheet melts, sea level would rise by 16 feet and it would rise by a further 20 feet if the
Greenland ice sheet melts (both would probably take a few centuries). How far inland
would the flooding extend if both ice sheets melts? Trace the height on your profile. Record
your answer in a table.
West Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets melt (36 feet)

distance in feet

Analyse several voltage and current situations in different loading scenarios in a simplified radial (transformer to consumption) medium-voltage power system example. There are only 2 nodes in the 35 kV line – node 0 from the 110/35 kV and node 1 with one consumer. The physical characteristics of the line and the loading scenarios are individualized for each student – please see the attached file Excel “WM9P3 Task1 data” for your particular data set.
Briefly reflect on the complexity of the calculations for known input or output voltage, as well as for fixed or voltage-dependent consumption in this simple power system model.
Analyse and discuss the sensitivity of the voltage drop [in % of amplitude and the degrees of phase] with respect to the current level [in %] and to the power factor.
